Grammar point: Clitic climbing
At C1, a frequent choice changes rhythm rather than meaning. With a closed set of verbs plus an infinitive, or with estar, seguir and andar plus a gerund, the unstressed pronoun may stay below or climb to the finite verb. «Lo van a regular» and «Van a regularlo» are both standard in Spain and in Latin America.
